Burns is a ing Abramhof crony crook. I hope he loses. The CNN pundits were thinking this one was lost because Tester wasn't mean enough. I like that he wouldn't do attack pieces and yet might win.
Burns (R) is still behind in Montana

Tester has it in the Bag.
It's up to Burns to save the Republican majority in the Senate
MSNBC is reporting MT may be called for Tester in the next half hour - stay tuned

Pay special attention to Yellowstone county.
UPDATE 7158 lead for Tester!!!
Tester Dem 149922
Burns Rep* 142764
Manny is in a prophesy zone tonight...
The totals from Yellowstone County disappeared from the official Montana Sec. of State website and media sites. Rumor is they are doing a complete hand recount of the county.
Tester 8,000 ahead.
According to Burns campaign announcement carried live by CNN Pipeline:
70000 votes in Yellowstone county to be recounted from scratch because a "machine malfunction" wiped out the vote count when machine rebooted. Also, problems with machines in Flathead and Gallatin counties. Expect results no sooner than 7AM MT.
that, I'm going to bed.
Tester 194914
Burns 193179
One small county still to come in

WASHINGTON - Democrats erased the Republican Senate majority Wednesday with a cliffhanger victory in Montana, hours after taking control of the House. The battle for Senate control came down to Virginia, where Democrats held a small lead.
Another DEMO victory...
Jon Tester Declares Victory (D-Montana Senate)
Says he's up a couple thousand votes with only 800 or so votes left to be counted.
CNN
You don't think there will be a recount? I just heard this morning that when Montana got their democrat governor, they rammed through legislation that allowed same day registration/voting. This was proven to allow widespread voter fraud in Wisconsin in the last election - I wonder how much it affected this race.
I haven't heard one whiff of news about irregularities in Montana. You got a link?
I'm not saying there was voter fraud - I heard John Fund (Wall Street Journal) this morning and he was talking about the voter fraud in Wisconsin (in the last election) resulting from same day registration/voting. He said Montana had passed this same legislation and he wondered if it had any effect on this election.
A recount can be requested by either party if it's a close enough election, and this one seems to qualify. In Montana I believe the requestor has to pay for it.
